Christ the King International School (CTKIS) was founded in 1956 to serve the educational needs of Catholic expatriates. The Missionary Sisters Servants of the Holy Spirit were responsible for establishing and managing the school. The student population quickly grew, and by 1957, it had doubled. Over time, the school uniform and facilities were improved, and the CTK hall was built with the support of parents.
